THE OXFORD SAMUEL BECKETT THEATRE TRUST AWARD 2015

The 2015 Award is for a company or individual to create a show either for the Pit Theatre, Barbican or a site-responsive, non-traditional show to take place in East London. The winning show will be part of the Barbican Theatre season.

All types of productions will be considered in terms of scale and length of run – from one-man to larger-scale shows, and from a limited run (not less than 10 performances) to a project, if site-responsive, that could last up to a month.

The Award comprises

– Two Research and Development grants of up to £2,500 each

– A production grant of up to £32,000. The size of the production grant (up to this amount) will depend on the scale of the show and a justified production budget

– A mentor for the project

– In-kind support from the Barbican, including press, marketing and some technical and administrative support

Bold and innovative projects will be favoured. 

The deadline for applications is  5pm, Friday, 20th December 2013
